Alimera Sciences's shares were split on a 1:15 basis on 14 November 2019 . So if you had owned 15 shares the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 1 share. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Alimera Sciences shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 1400% higher share price could have impacted the market appetite for Alimera Sciences shares which in turn could have impacted Alimera Sciences's share price.
Over the last 12 months, Alimera Sciences's shares have ranged in value from as little as $2.77 up to $5.65. A popular way to gauge a stock's volatility is its "beta".
Beta is a measure of a share's volatility in relation to the market. The market (NASDAQ average) beta is 1, while Alimera Sciences's is 1.245. This would suggest that Alimera Sciences's shares are a little bit more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent, relatively-speaking, a slightly higher risk (but potentially also market-beating returns).
